Vapen heeft al miljoenen rokers geholpen om definitief te stoppen. De WHO moet eindelijk luisteren naar consumenten en de wetenschap om wereldwijd 200 miljoen levens te redden.<\/p>\n<p>De World Vapers&#039; Alliance staat volledig achter de experts en dringt er bij de WHO op aan haar huidige standpunt over vapen en vergelijkbare alternatieven te heroverwegen. Hieronder presenteren we onze drie belangrijkste verzoeken van de Wereldgezondheidsorganisaties in de aanloop naar hun COP9-conferentie over tabaksontmoediging in november:<\/p>\n<p>Wat consumenten van de WHO willen:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>De erkenning en opname van methoden ter vermindering van de schade door tabaksgebruik<\/li>\n<li>Het recht op toegang en betaalbaarheid voor consumenten<\/li>\n<li>De effectieve deelname van consumenten aan discussies op de COP<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Miljoenen consumenten wereldwijd zijn gestopt met roken dankzij minder schadelijke alternatieven. Schadebeperkende producten (vaping, nicotinezakjes, snus en andere) kunnen miljoenen levens redden. Er is een enorme hoeveelheid bewijs die deze argumenten ondersteunt.<\/p>\n<p>Daarom vragen wij om de goedkeuring van alternatieve methoden ter beperking van de schade door tabaksgebruik en om een eerlijke vertegenwoordiging tijdens COP9.<\/p>\n<p>De World Vapers&#039; Alliance zegt<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>De Wereldgezondheidsorganisatie moet de vermindering van de schade door tabaksgebruik ondersteunen<\/li>\n<li>Garandeer de toegang tot en betaalbaarheid van minder schadelijke alternatieven<\/li>\n<li>Consumenten en organisaties op het gebied van tabaksschadevermindering moeten gehoord worden<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Oorspronkelijk gepubliceerd\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vapouround.co.uk\/news\/politics\/consumers-tell-the-world-health-organization-listen-to-science-and-people\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">hier<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Earlier this week, 100 top experts in the field of tobacco harm reduction \u2013 including WVA\u2019s scientific advisor Prof. Bernhard Mayer \u2013\u00a0sent a clear message to the WHO:\u00a0The war on vaping and other alternatives must end!
